Macungie Pics.

Wow-that's a great bunch of photos. Truck Shop -
For dry land non irrigated that's a real good crop. BPA also stands for Bonneville Power Administration on the Columbia River dams. Truck Shop

Yes I can take you to see it but don't expect much out of the owner. He is a total hermit and has plenty of money so the truck can rot into the ground for all he cares. Truck Shop

Buy a pressure protection valve and install in your secondary tank, and run a line from protection vale to the ride height valve. The pressure protection valve stops flowing air around 80 psi, so if you rupture a air bag you won't drain the system. Truck Shop -

You guy's are probably going to shoot me but there won't be any Mack running gear left in that B75 when I'm done. I bought a set of Eaton 404 3:70 ration rear drives with Freightliner {Air Liner} air ride suspension. Plus I have a RTOO12515 spd and a BCIV 676 CPL 400 which I will use BCIII after cooler and stat housing and make a full flow cooling engine out of. I'm shooting for a 260 wheel base. What I'm doing is building a truck some what like I drew ten years ago or so. Truck Shop

Ah Ha! Laughing gas. How many shots of NOX had that engine been exposed to before it went poof? Probably several. 😉 Truck Shop

The B/RB blocks and cranks were pretty good but it is a engine that needs a set of Eagle Rods if your going to run one a little hard. At least a set of ARP rod bolts then have the housing bores checked on the rods. Truck Shop

The motor gods got tired of being in the dark inside that engine and just wanted a window to peek out of. Truck Shop

And I will raise you 50, here's one that was setting with that Mack I bought. 1931. Truck Shop

Yes it is

It's a Pro Winch and that square aluminum cylinder is a air clutch for free spooling. IIRC that Gearmatic is owned by PacCar so is Braden. When it's 10* below zero a free spool winch is a must. Truck Shop

He's not ready to sell that Jimmy but if he does he said he would let me know.

I bought this 1960 B75 for $2,500 and a 1959 B61 parts truck with good nose, cab, gear boxes, front axle and frame parts for $700,00. I couldn't let this old 75 go bye-bye. The owner was asking $4,000 for it. Truck Shop

And here I thought I had several B/RB engines, I had eleven B/RB engines. I sold the last one a 383 two years ago. Truck Shop

When R/B Chrysler-Dodge engines set for periods of time blowing the filter is not that uncommon. I have witnessed that before with a 413 in a motor home that sat for four years. Regulator in pump was stuck on that one. And the oil sending unit started to leak right away also. Friend bought a 67 Imperial with a RB 440 for the engine, mainly the heads. Last time it was run was 1982, on test fire it shot the filter can off where it was pressed together. Truck Shop

When I went to look at the 1960 B75 I also found these honey's. 1939 chev, 1937 T and a S180 high binder and last but not least a 52 950 GMC five window with a 6-71 and 5X4. Truck Shop

After I got there I realized I had seen this truck before years ago. This truck had been laid on it's right side the doors don't fit right and upon close inspection there wasn't a crossmember that wasn't broke or cracked completely through. The engine is a Maxidyne from a 70 RL. It originally was a logger. But I past on it. The eyes of the steer axle are shot also, basically a good parts truck. Truck Shop

I might have to make a short road trip tomorrow to Ephrata to check that out. I know where there is a full set of perfect fenders for that and I bet the rust is very little living where it's at. Truck Shop

Pressure in expansion tank
Truck Shop replied to wiserfrombud's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
Just for grins warm it up and do a block check for emissions in the cooling system. When we have coolant system pressure issues that is the first test I perform. Napa sells a kit and it works. Truck Shop -
Thanks JH that is a much better photo than the one i saw years ago. I knew you would have something stored away.😊 Truck Shop

Anyone on BMT have any info and a photo or photos of a 1931 Relay model 300A? It was equipped with twin Lycoming Straight Eight's and Westinghouse air brakes. Big horsepower at the time-rated at 275. I have only seen one picture of a 300 and it was a tiny enhanced photo. Thanks Truck Shop
